Avoid These Common Apple Cider Vinegar Mistakes to Protect Your Health
Apple cider vinegar (ACV) has gained popularity for its potential to support digestion, improve blood sugar control, and aid in weight management. While many incorporate it into their daily wellness routines, improper use can do more harm than good. If you’re using ACV—or planning to—understanding the most common mistakes is essential for protecting your health.
Here’s what to watch out for:
1. Drinking It Undiluted
ACV is highly acidic. Consuming it straight can erode tooth enamel and irritate or even burn the lining of your throat and esophagus. To safely consume ACV, dilute 1–2 tablespoons in a large glass of water. Never take it as a shot.
2. Using Too Much
More isn’t better. Excessive intake of ACV can lead to:
- Nausea
- Delayed stomach emptying
- Digestive discomfort
- Low potassium levels
Stick to 1–2 tablespoons per day, and always dilute it in water. Going beyond that may cause more side effects than benefits.
